“Justin took care of our two dogs for a long weekend. He kept in touch with us throughout the weekend, sending us pictures and updates. The house was very clean when we got home. We have had other sitters where we could tell the dogs had had several accidents inside while we were gone. Not with Justin! We were happy to see that the dogs were well cared for and happy when we arrived home.”
“Theresa, is always great with our very shy dog Oso. We really appreciate her taking such good care of Oso. House is always in great shape, and her communication while we are gone is wonderful.”
“Is it possible to become overly-attached to your pooch-sitter as well as your adored pooch? Perhaps. But to leave your home feeling secure that your dog and household will be perfectly cared-for is a matchless gift. We are very grateful for Davied's competence, nurturing and high-standards for professionalism.”
“Jolene is awesome, she was well prepared with details about toby. She is a creative person and it was awesome to see her draw Toby! Toby loved her!!”
“Siobhan watched my dog in my home for several nights and did a fantastic job! She was dog sitting during a bad snowstorm and went out of her way to shovel our walkway and get our dog out for a walk in the snow. She even graciously offered to stay longer should our flight back to Seattle get canceled due to the weather (luckily we made it home). We returned to a clean, warm home and happy dog. We’d love to have her stay with our dog again!”
“Rachael is fantastic! She took great care of our pups, one of whom is elderly and has some special needs. She left our home clean and tidy and her communication was excellent both before and during her stay. She's completely trustworthy, upbeat, intelligent and just a pleasure to interact with...I simply can't recommend her enough!”
“Highly recommend Olivia! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable and taken care of. She’s so considerate and communicated and sent cute updates along the way. We love her!”
“Rae was very patient with our anxious dog! She gave them plenty of treats and was very accommodating of Apple. And of course, Elvis had a great time getting pets and cuddles. Thank you Rae!”
“Quinn is an excellent house-sitter! They were very communicative and took terrific care of our 13-year-old dog (who is reactive to other animals) and two chickens. Our house was also well cared for over the long holiday weekend. I highly recommend Quinn for any of your petcare needs! Will definitely book again.”
“Mary is a gem! Our two dogs are very different, one old, one young, one neurotic, and one sane. Mary gives them what they need, and when we come home, they are calm; a sure sign that all is well. The house is clean, the sheets are washed, and we come home to no drama. Thank you, Mary!”
“Rebecca went above and beyond when sitting Remy! So grateful to have someone watch him who was so caring and handled Remy’s unexpected upset stomach so well! She also took great care of my home! Would certainly book Rebecca again!”
“Jeff has stayed over with our two pups multiple times now, and he’s consistently a 10/10 dog sitter! Our dogs now get excited when we tell them Jeff is coming over! He kept us updated with cute photos and videos, and our house was very clean when we arrived home. I really appreciate having a trustworthy person caring for my fur kids while I’m away. Thank you, Jeff!”
“Kate did a fantastic job taking care of our pups while we were out of town. They are a little high maintenance and she was able to take all of their needs into account. We received daily updates and photos, which let us know that everything was okay! Would definitely book with her again!”
“Ami was great! One of my dogs is quite nervous around new people and Ami was great with her. She provided regular updates and pictures. My dogs were relaxed and happy when I came home. I would recommend her!”
“Kathleen did a great job with house sitting for our dog. She was communicative and sent us a lot of updates that made us feel good about our dog while we were traveling”
“Thank you, Lily, for taking care of my little pups! They were happy and well-cared for when we came home. You went above and beyond in taking care of our lawn, flowers and garbage/recycling. We can’t wait to have you come see the pups again❤️❤️”
“Angelique was amazing with our boys while we were away overseas for over a week! She kept us up to date and thoroughly informed. Having her with the boys made us say less anxious because we knew they were in good hands! She also took great care of our home and we came back to a very clean home!”
“Liz took amazing care of my 4-year old Basenji. Liz is easy to coordinate with, communicative, and reliable. She left the apartment in perfect condition. Would hire again without hesitation!”
“Zach was great with our dog (and home) when we needed someone to come stay and watch him at the last minute. He promptly responded and scheduled a next day meet and greet. Our dog also required medicine at the time and Zach ensured he got everything he needed and was well cared for while we were gone. We loved the updates and photos too! We even came home and the house was cleaner than we left it. Sincerely appreciate Zach’s help at the last minute!”

Machele was amazing for watching our reactive doggy. She also did great with our cat who isnt the friendliest. She met with us early fully understand the situation. She also had a through intake to cover everything. She gave us daily updates on how the animals were doing. Through all of it she made us feel very comfortable with leaving our animals with her. She was very clean and tidy as well. Would definitely love to have her watch them again!
Deven was absolutely wonderful to work with. This was my first time having someone stay at our house with Wallace, and I was a bit nervous however Deven took such great care both of our home and our pup. We would definitely be booking Deven again in the future! He communicated well, kept us updated on how things were going with Wallace was very thorough with his questions in advance and left everything in great condition.
Quinnie is amazing! Quinnie stayed at our house and cared for our three year old golden retriever and two year old cat. Our dog is a sensitive girl and has to take medication in the morning and evening. Quinnie gave us very regular updates and went well above and beyond on all forms of care - she really treated our pets like they were her own. She watched them and our house for over two weeks and everything went perfectly. We came back to an incredibly clean house and supremely happy and healthy pets. We are so grateful for everything she has done and look forward to her next stay!!
We were able to enjoy our vacation because we had confidence in Jacob and Brandon for starters after our meet and greet. The household was in good shape when we came home. It was obvious the dogs loved them. They had no problems managing our over the top happy 85 lb labradoodle. We would definitely ask for their services again.
I can’t even express how happy I was with Billy and Monica! This was the first time leaving my two dogs since I moved to Seattle and I was pretty anxious about it because they’re not always the easiest to deal with. I have an older dog with dementia and weak back legs so he just needs a bit of extra care and patience and my younger dog can be pretty high energy and bother my older one. Billy and Monica were absolutely wonderful with then though. They sent pictures regularly and when I got home, the dogs (and my apartment!) were in great shape and were clearly lovingly cared for. The relief I felt was immense. I would highly recommend! Thank you both so much!!
Eunice did an amazing job caring for our dog, Kona, and our home while we were out of town for two weeks. This was the longest we had ever been away from Kona, so it was especially important to us to find someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely loving—and Eunice exceeded every expectation. She sent thoughtful, detailed updates every day, along with incredible photos that were honestly frame-worthy! It was clear that Kona was happy, well fed, well exercised, and receiving plenty of love and attention. Knowing she was in such wonderful hands gave us tremendous peace of mind throughout our trip. We would hire Eunice again without hesitation and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets and home.
Caroline saved the day when our initial cat sitter canceled at the last minute. She was extremely responsive, easy to work with, and, most importantly, took wonderful care of Harry and Meghan. Our home was also spotless when we returned. I would rebook Caroline in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!
